AEG G.IV

The AEG G.IV was a twin-engined biplane tactical bomber designed and produced by AEG and flown by the German Army air service in the First World War. Developed from the G.III, it entered service in late 1916 and had double the bomb capacity of the G.II, a warload of 400 kilograms. It was unusual among German G-class bombers for its all-metal welded steel-tube frame, and used two 194 kilowatt Mercedes D.IVa inline piston engines. It flew day and night over France, Romania, Greece and Italy, later mostly at night. A single example survives at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum.
